Chapter 82: Teacher of Defense Against Dark Arts (Part 2)
Finished the Pippi, they followed the ragged professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts and moved on.
crossed another corridor...
A few minutes later, Lupin led them open the door of a classroom——
This classroom is the same classroom where Professor Albus Dumbledore took them to deal with Bogut last semester.
"Please come in!" Lupin covered the door with one hand, and made a gesture of invitation with the other: "Everyone, sit down and don't move."
Twenty students walked into the classroom one by one, and then sat on the seats in the classroom.
The classroom is a little dark, the curtains are tightly closed, leaving only a few lights to illuminate; except for the tables and chairs, the remaining area is a large cage... Some blood stains can be vaguely seen in the cage. There are a few big rocks in the direction.
Jon noticed that there was a thick piece of parchment on the table; then he looked up again because he seemed to hear something, as if someone was crying.
"Where are you looking?" Zacharias whispered.
Following the direction Zacharias was pointing, Jon saw the innermost side of the cage, and there seemed to be a little girl with her back facing them.
A little girl who seemed to be very cute sat there curled up in a ball, wearing a blood-red dress and a hat on her head.
"Woohoo..." The little girl lowered her head and let out a low sob.
The crowd could not help but talk about why such a little girl who seemed to be only four or five years old appeared in the classroom of Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
"Lupin...Professor...why do you want to lock her up?" Sean Avery of Slytherin stood up, and he asked a little dissatisfied.
"This is the content of our class!" Lupin said with a smile: "Perhaps in your opinion, it is just a cute girl."
Most students nodded.
"this is not the truth……"
"Is it a vampire?" Jon heard Steven Lucas on the side whisper.
"Impossible!" Madeleine Yaxley on one side retorted softly: "Vampires are not easy to hunt!"
Jon frowned. He remembered that this creature seemed to be mentioned in the book "Dark Force: A Guide to Self-Defense".
A kind of amazing creature that looks very weak but very dangerous!
……
"Now, you are optimistic!" Lupin raised his wand.
A stone in the cage began to slowly deform, and finally turned into a gray wolf.
Turn stones into animals, a very clever transformation technique.
Watching the "grey wolf" approach the crying little girl a little bit, even if they already know that the gray wolf was transformed by a transformation technique, several girls couldn't help covering their mouths.
The "grey wolf" had already walked behind the little girl... and then, a jaw-dropping scene appeared.
The back of the little girl who had just appeared to be well-behaved and weak, turned her head, revealing her real, hideous face...
A weird-looking, dwarf-like creature with a big **** mouth covering almost half of its face, and a thick stick in his hand.
The dwarf smashed the big stick at the "grey wolf" viciously, only to hear a loud noise, and then the gray wolf turned into countless broken stones.
The students who had just looked at the "little girl" with pity and sympathy, are now staring at the dwarf monster in front of them in horror.
"Can anyone tell me what it is?" Lupin glanced at the crowd before asking.
Jon raised his hand.
"Very well, Mr. Hart!"
"This is a red hat, Professor!" Jon said calmly.
"Correct answer, Hufflepuff adds five points!" Lupin nodded in satisfaction, then motioned to Jon to sit down.
"Red hat!" Lupin's voice was calm, but with a strong sense of seriousness: "Mr. Newt-Scamander evaluated him as a 4X-level magical creature in the book "Where are Fantastic Beasts". It shows that they are a very dangerous and magical creature! They usually pick up thick wooden sticks as weapons. They are so powerful that a stick can easily smash the heads of people or animals."
"They look a lot like fairies, but they are more difficult and cruel than fairies! Wherever there is bleeding, they can be found; red hats generally live by licking blood from animals or humans..." Lu After a pause, he continued to explain: "Because they are very powerful, but they are very slow, and it is usually difficult to hunt down their prey."
"However, red hats also have their own unique hunting methods... They usually like to be in dark places at dusk or at night; near big trees or rivers with their backs to the outside, and at the same time lift and cover their red fur. The whole body, so that they can disguise themselves. As long as they make a cry similar to the cry of a woman, they look like a crying little girl from afar!"
"Muggles who are alone~www.NovelMTL.com~ are easy to be killed after encountering a red hat at dusk or at night, especially some Muggle hunters. They will also be attacked, and some who have a low sense of smell. Beasts, and some wizards who lack experience in survival in the wild."
"More than 50 years ago, the British magical world encountered more than a dozen red hat attacks every year; but with the hunting of red hats by Aurors in recent years, Britain has rarely seen such creatures...but In Northern Europe or Central Europe and even France, the existence of red hats is still extremely common! The red hat in front of you is exactly what I caught in Stockholm a few weeks ago."
The whole classroom is silent.
Several Slytherin students who had despised Lupin before, now they are now listening attentively to his lectures.
The red hat in the cage has turned his back again, disguised as a weak little girl, crying.
"There are many spells and methods to deal with the Red Hat, as long as you are not attracted by its false appearance!" Lupin has drawn out his wand and pointed it at the monster in the cage: "But the simplest and most effective is Splitting spells, as long as they use splitting spells to smash their red fur, this is quite deadly to them, and it also means that in the future, they will not be able to continue to mutilate other people in the same way.
"The spell is... Diffindo!"
Following a spell from Lupin, the red fur behind the red hat fell to the ground piece by piece as if it was forcibly torn apart by something...The dwarf monster once again showed its prototype and made a tragic cry.
"There is a piece of parchment on every table, everyone can practice with it!" Lupin put away his wand and said with a smile.
